Grounded at Home

Two kind folks wondered why we have not updated this Blog in months. Well we have never updated it while we are at home. Deal is, we have not been home this long since we retired. Four months and counting. No trip in sight.

And home we are. Cleaning, painting and staging the house. Getting it ready to put on the market. Not that we really expect it to sell. It is looking better. After five years of playing the place was getting a run down look.

Oh, and we are spending money too. On the house. We hope the new owners will appreciate it.

I would take a picture, but it’s too damn cold to go outside. December and January were the pits and February is so far worse.

We need to sell this place. It’s over 3,400 square feet and we need something around 2,000 on one level. 1,200 would be fine with me. Dorothy “needs” 2,000. One level as our knees complain about steps.

We may not get a long trip this year. That depends on too many things. We will get away for some short trips. We are even going to a local COE CG over Alabama AEA with Dorothy’s niece and three kids. They will be in their popup. Alecia and her gang may join in their tent.
